(4-1) Bar Graphs.



                  Bar graphs are visual representations that help us organize

                  information easily. The information is drawn into rectangular
                  bars with heights or lengths proportional to the values that they

                  represent. Bar graphs are also called bar charts.





                  Bar graphs have 2 axis, one is vertical and the other is horizontal.
